In the wake of yet another Muslim terror plot, we can’t ignore the threat profile any longer—or the solution. Asra Q. Nomani argues the case for religious and racial profiling.

For all those holiday travelers negotiating the Transportation Security Administration’s new cop-a-feel strategy, there is a difficult solution we need to consider: racial and religious profiling.

As an American Muslim, I’ve come to recognize, sadly, that there is one common denominator defining those who’ve got their eyes trained on U.S. targets: MANY of them are Muslim—like the Somali-born teenager arrested Friday night for a reported plot to detonate a car bomb at a packed Christmas tree-lighting ceremony in downtown Portland, Oregon.

We have to talk about the taboo topic of profiling because terrorism experts are increasingly recognizing that religious ideology makes terrorist organizations and terrorists more likely to commit heinous crimes against civilians, such as blowing an airliner out of the sky. Certainly, it’s not an easy or comfortable conversation but it’s one, I believe, we must have.

This past week, as part of a debate series sponsored by the New York-based group Intelligence Squared, I argued that U.S. airports should use racial and religious profiling….

Who said anything about “people of color?” Muslims are not a race – there a Arab Muslims, Persian Muslims, Indian Muslims, Indonesian Muslims, Bosnian Muslims and so on. And who is wanting to “hand rape” anyone? Where does anyone say that the TSA groping or body scanners are okay? The video I included is a protest [i]against [/i]this current situation.

Profiling is a SCIENCE that can certainly be used so that not everyone who travels – including small children and elderly nuns – needs to be “hand raped,” as you so elegantly put it.

But I guess you don’t care about all those innocent people who are currently being “hand raped?” Just about whether or not “people of color” and Muslims are being profiled. Well, let’s spare the obvious candidates the indignity, while punishing the rest of us!

You offer no solution, so apparently what’s going on is just dandy with you. Well, it’s not with me, and I don’t want to travel because of it – certainly not with my family, so that they can suffer such indignities, which are caused largely if not entirely by ISLAMIC TERRORISTS, not Jews.

So why would we profile Jews? I don’t recall the last time a Jewish bomber was caught on an airplane, do you? Ah, but the Joooos control the world, so I guess all these Muslim terrorists are actually Jews? Please be sure to tell them that, as I’m sure they will appreciate it very much.:

“Dear Muslim terrorist – you are actually being controlled by a Jew, so please don’t blow up that crowded mall full of innocent people.”

Let me know if that works.

Objectors to this post need to watch what a real politician has to say about our increasing enslavement under Islam:

Until you have experienced the same insights and have grown some stones, I’m afraid I will have little interest in your opinion on the subject.

Do Rense readers know anything about the world other than Jewish conspiracy theories?

Rense also has on Frosty Wooldridge ([url]http://www.frostywooldridge.com/[/url]), who is an expert on immigration and ISLAM – have you not paid one whit of attention to his important work?

Please get with the program and stop enabling the destruction of Western civilization. Thank you.

Oh, and by the way, a case could be made for Islam being a “Jewish conspiracy” ([url]http://newsgroups.derkeiler.com/Archive/Alt/alt.politics.bush/2006-08/msg02319.html[/url]) – will you look at it more critically [i]now[/i]?

Too bad, however, that Islam’s abysmal human-rights-abusing record isn’t enough for some people to make them condemn it.

270 MILLION People Murdered in the Name of Islam ([url]http://www.politicalislam.com/tears/pages/tears-of-jihad/[/url])

Where did your bring that figures? The most abusive religion in the world is Hinduism. The abuse of the Hindu cast system is horrifying and scary. they,r burning their women alive for their stupid dowries.Of course, the Jewish dominated media will not look at that stupid religion because the Hindus are their allies. Americans has to awaken to other form of terrorism, which is industrial terrorism by moving their industry to Indian cows.

Apparently you don’t know my work very well, as I am known as a “fierce” critic of Christianity. But this thread isn’t about Christianity, so fingerpointing elsewhere is simply a distraction away from the issue at hand.

Who are the Synagogue of satan on earth?Read Revelation 2:9,,3:9 and see that ashkeNAZI devils are your enemy.They adopted judaism in 740 black see kingdom of Khazaria,they are behind all terrorist acts and the coming communism to USSA.http://www.realzionistnews.com

Your remarks are inaccurate; therefore, I know that [i]you [/i]cannot be trusted. What I said was that Hitler’s paternal grandmother was [i]allegedly [/i]Jewish.” I did make one error, as the rumor concerned Hitler’s paternal grand[i]father[/i]. Any WWII historian worth his salt would know about this contention concerning Hitler and Schicklgruber, whether or not it is true.

However, I did not “pass on the myth” by claiming it was true. I’m assuming you know the meaning of the word “allegedly ([url]http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/allegedly[/url]).” Reporting on an allegation is not necessarily giving it credence; if it were, no crime could possibly be reported with any potential suspect. In your haste to defame me, you have immediately destroyed your own credibility.

In the meantime, you are apparently perfectly okay with having children groped, so long as Muslims are spared the indignity of being profiled.

“You people are not going to win.”

And who is “you people?” [b]Are you profiling us?[/b] The writer of this piece is a MUSLIM WOMAN – are you profiling [i]her[/i]? Are you lumping her in with me in [i]your [/i]profiling?

And what aren’t we profiled people going to “win?” Our rights not to be molested at airports? What’s next? Malls? Will you be okay with that, so long as Muslims are not profiled? You sound very menacing, in fact.

My remarks about the Jews above are tongue in cheek, but in your [i]irrational[/i] haste to defame me, you obviously could not grasp that concept. And you conveniently ignore the fact that in that very post I am [i]criticizing[/i] the Jewish conspiracy theories, including the one that says “the Joooos control the world.” Somehow you completely missed that point.

And how do you know I am a “goy?” Why do you separate yourself out from humanity by calling others “you GOYS?” Are you different from “goys?” Are you prejudiced against “goys?” Do you hate them?

The only “hate speech” I see on this site is coming from people like you spewing insults at individuals whom you do not know in the least, including the MUSLIM WOMAN who wrote the article that is the subject of this post.

Here you are personally attacking two women you don’t know at all – some might suggest you are an anti-goy misogynist, sir.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT ACHARYA S/D.M. MURDOCK

"Previously I have interviewed Frank Zindler, Richard Carrier, David Fitzgerald and Robert Price, all of whom are ‘mythicists'; they don’t think there was ever anyone alive whom we could recognize as either Jesus or Moses. Of the lot of them, I would have thought that Price was the foremost expert, but he referred me to D.M. Murdock, also known as Acharya S, author of Did Moses Exist? The Myth of the Israelite Lawgiver, an impressive piece of work. It’s definitive.” —Aron Ra, president, American Atheists-TX

“Having known Acharya for quite some time, and although our life’s paths have diverged, she is never far from mind, and all thoughts are positive. She is a solid driving force for all things wise, good and useful that make this earth a tad bit better. We could use millions more like her.” —Robert W.Morgan
